So now on a full charge the battery in "Drive" shows 110, and "Eco shows 118" miles of range.
Anyway I found out when they gave me a new battery, they also upgraded the battery to the 2016-2017 35 kW Battery good for 110 miles range (or so the display says, you won't get that range on the freeway at 65 mph).
To answer the other person, the 2016-2017 battery WILL FIT in the earlier models. Nissan only has to install a connector adapter which they made for this.
Interesting! If I remember correctly, someone on this forum indicated that after a discussion with a Nissan dealer tech about 10 months ago.
Subsequently, that someone's credibility became suspect to many. Hopefully, other sources for this will corroborate it.
Our 2013 LEAF still shows over 100 miles on the GOM after a full charge.
OP's real range from a full charge is in the 80s as clarified from his mention of (IIRC) 48 miles remaining after 35 miles of driving at 70 mph. Just what one would expect from a new 24 kWh battery.
Incidentally, OP's battery replacement was approved in June. Wasn't that during the period that Nissan was approving goodwill replacements, even without a "JD diploma" and drama ?
